Summer Programs

In an effort to ensure greater consistency, reliability, and communication regarding summer school transportation, PfISD will utilize campus and neighborhood hub locations for student pick-up and drop-off. The hub location method allows PfISD to communicate all summer transportation information early, providing students, parents, and summer program administrators with the time they need to prepare for summer program participation.

This academy is for identified 5th grade students, to prepare them for the third administration of the STAAR Reading and/or Math test. Parents will be contacted by the school counselor if their student needs to attend summer school.
